    Magic won three championships at three different levels in four years. He won a championship in his senior year in HS, NCAA Championship his sophomore year, and NBA Championship his rookie year.

    Yo Magic Johnson actually made no look passes. He's running a fast break staring at him but he's able to make a sharp accurate pass the complete opposite direction to the player nobody noticed. This man is the Goat PG. And he wasn't allergic to scoring can do that too if he had to.

      Probably? Curry & West are combo guards those aren't PGs then there's Oscar Robertson who would have the best argument vs Magic but winning does matter. Magic the Goat PG with honorable mention to the great Oscar Robertson who was as complete a player you can think of. If I'm not mistaken I believe Magic & Robertson own the most 20 & 10 from the PG position. But even if someone wants to put Curry in the PG lane he's still not touching Magic or Robertson.

    A true legend. The original "Point God". Eyes on the back of his head. It's Magic, watch the ball diapear. He didn't need any glasses for those no look passes. He could have played in any era. A straight winner, been ballin since a beginner, if only he wasn't a sinner. If he won 1 more ring they might be calling him the GOAT. There will never be another Magic.

    Will always have a special love for Earvin, went to an autograph signing back in 2012 and on videos he seemed like a nice guy but like they say never meet your idols. I brought my cousin along just because he was a huge basketball fan and after he signed my jersey he yelled “y’all want to get a picture?” I hate being that guy to hold up lines but he said “cmon let’s get a pic! Then my cousin asked “can I get a pic magic” and with that huge magic smile he said “of course.”

    Magic Johnson is regarded as one of the most talented, selfless players to ever play the point guard position at a very high level. Despite being 6 foot 9 tall, he is one of the greatest basketball players to step a foot on the court with ball handling vision. After winning a national championship with Michigan State, He was selected first overall in the 1979 NBA draft by the Lakers, leading the team to five NBA championships during their "Showtime" era. Then, he retired after playing for the first 12 seasons and he made a comeback in 1995 to play one final season before he retired from professional basketball for good. He is the most successful businessman outside of basketball.🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀

    Magic Johnson and Larry Bird can very strongly be argumented to be THE sole saviors of the NBA. Before them, the league was in serious trouble of decline, but they brought allong a legendary competitive rivalry that still is talked about like it was yesterday. The LA Lakers vs. Boston Celtics dynasties of the 80's was only interupted by two other teams in 76:ers (1985) and Pistons (1989). And so fittingly how Magic's Lakers passed the dynasty tourch to the future G.O.A.T Michael Jordan and his new dynasty Bulls in 1991.

    As a 76er fan, I will say that Magic Johnson was the greatest PG to ever play the game. Kareem got hurt and he schooled my squad with the craziest stat line of 42-15-7, playing C. It was always exciting to watch the Celtics/Lakers rivalries.

      A couple points more a game would not have effected the team. People overrate this factor. The Lakers had Kareem, Worthy and Scott and Magic as their core scorers. When Kareem retired, he scored several more points per game.

I mean watch some of his buzzer beaters. Mike and Larry had more no doubt. But Magic’s some of his were just SICK! I mean shots that had no business going in. It was just Magic. Nobody can run an offense like Magic did. He conducted” basketball games.
